Although I wouldn’t know for sure until the music festival concluded on Sunday at 2am, Bishop Briggs was my Best New Find at SXSW 2018. Here she is, plus another 10 performances, including Liza Anne and Rebecca Loebe, on Day 3.

Another one in the can – SXSW 2018! Six solid days of music – Monday to Saturday – nonstop each day from noon until 2am. Over 2000 artists from around the world descended in Austin and spread out to over 100 venues – and those are just the official show cases in the evening. During the day, most of those performers plus many hundreds of others, also played at the numerous day parties sponsored by companies in the music industry.

In my ninth consecutive year, I saw 67 performances, took 10K+ photos and did 15 portraits with artists. Rather than one large post for the complete festival, this year’s expanded coverage will have a post for each of the six days. There will also be a seventh post of portraits taken during week. Let’s begin with Day 1 …

Hailing from LA, AWOLNATION headlined a sold-out show at Showbox SoDo. They are on a world tour supporting their third album, Here Come The Runts. The stage was very colorfully backlit which presented a very cool effect of the artists. AWOLNATION finished off the show with their song, “Sail.”
